Information consortium started the news -- you've got to leave today.
Lost your job taking care of the rooms -- no one to look out for you now.
What a shame! My mind is in denial. Gone, but the pain -- my heart is now on trial.
So when will you come home?
CHORUS----
It all started out as an accident
I wish I knew where my better sense of judgment went
'cause I hate to see you leave
My conversation's straight DOA 
Like a nickel fortune teller with nothing to say
I hate to see you leave
----
Aloof and disconnected -- discombobulated and ignored
It may be unimportant -- look at me, I'm just a little paranoid
In my eyes, can you feel the disappointment?
No? Well,  you should. Am I so goddamned unimportant?
'Cause I hate to see you leave.

REPEAT CHORUS

When will you come home???

It all started out as an accident
I wish I knew where my better sense of judgment went
'cause I hate to see you go away. Go away, now ...

REPEAT CHORUS

D.O.A.
